Here is the official date, as I just made the reservation: October 13-15 at a campsite to be named later. On this making out business: I'd really like this to be worked out way in advance. We'll need a Prime Minister of Making Out. Also, for the First Annual CC.com Special Olympics we may need some honerary judges and stuff. Also I would like to invite all corporate sponsors to contact to send me free gear, so I can show it off at the Ropeup and brag about having it. PM me for my home address.

I'm posting from the bathroom!

You'll never find it. Its locals only, you don't want to get beat up, do you?

If someone has a goat we can borrow we can have a goatroping contest. That one would be sure to have some hilarious results.

pushup *and* pull up contest. beer chuggin contest. etc. this year is going to be ultracompetitive.

I'm definitely feeling pretty good because i got to go climbing at Index yesterday. It sort of makes everything all better. Natural healing and crystals and stuff.

you missed out fox. Ken and I closed out more than one bar last night. sickness.

What color of cups should I get? What sort of beer should we have at ropeup? What time should we start at? Will it rain? I actually think we might not do a slide show this year and just concentrate on the more important things like perhaps having the Firt Annual CC.com Special Olympics.

Ha! Good luck finding the right road.

Could everyone who isn't going to come to Ropeup please post in this thread? THANKS!!! That would be great, because this thread is about ropeup plans, and I need to know if you aren't going to be there, because that changes everything. I'm going to flip a coin and post a date for ropeup based on a few factor, but mostly on when I can get a group campsite and and so it doesn't conflict with your beloved little Tuff Love because you know you're all really just a bunch of petty little sport climbers who live in "PDX". But don't worry....sport climbers are permitted on cc.com too! And gays and lesbians too. Its all good. And mythosgirl, don't worry, I won't be licking any shirts this year (unless asked, of course).

Draconians are created through the use of a mold that grows on a race of dwarves on the continent of Ansalon. The mold is put onto dragon eggs; three draconians come out per egg. The first eggs to have this done were bronze dragon eggs. Draconians were created to serve as specialists or shock troops in the Dark Queen's army. They were supposed to be more predictable than humans, and more tractable than ogres or goblins. Even though both male and female Draconians were created at the same time, the existence of the females were concealed. Draconians are the result of evil magic. Dracart, Wyrllish, and Harkiel were the three that performed the corruption ritual on the eggs. The ceremony corrupted the embryo. There are many types of draconians, depending on which type of metallic dragon egg they were corrupted from. Baaz were created from brass dragon eggs, Bozaks from bronze, Kapaks from copper, Sivaks from silver, and Auraks from gold. Draconians are reptilian creatures which have small wings on their backs which can be used for gliding. Also, fighting them is difficult due to their large size as well as death weapons. Once they die, draconians can either turn to stone and usually burying their victim, turn into giant pools of acid which can choke as well as burn, or their bones can explode creating a small crater. Until the Chaos war, the world had believed that draconians were sexless. Dracart knew that female dragon eggs created female draconians, and male eggs male draconians. Even though the draconians were loyal to Takhsis and her priests now, Dracart feared that in the future they might rebel. He wanted to destroy all female metallic dragon eggs, but Takhsis forbade it. She decreed that the eggs containing females were to be hidden in a different location, and were not allowed to hatch. When the Whitestone Forces mounted a serious opposition, Takhsis decided that she needed a more efficient method of creating draconians. Therefore, Dracart created the Heart of Dracart. The Heart creates hundreds of new draconians from an existing one, essentially taking the soul and splitting it up. The original draconian dies. The copies are not as smart, powerful, or long-lived, but are docile, obedient, and able to fight. Dracart never got to use his artifact. The Heart of Dracart was stolen by Maranta, an aurak. He wanted to destroy the artifact, but as time passed, their race began to become endangered. He hoped that the remaining draconians would gather under his leadership, and that he could continue their species through the Heart of Dracart, making him the savior of his species. Meanwhile, Kang, a Bozak discovered the female dragon eggs and allowed them to hatch. Twenty females emerged, one Aurak, two Sivaks, three Bozaks, four Kapaks, and ten Baaz. Kang discovered some of the females special abilities; female Kapaks's spit has healing properties instead of being poisonm, etc.Kang and his draconians sought a place to call home, where they could live in peace. Eventually, Kang and Maranta clashed, ending with Kang killing Maranta. After that, Kang led his draconians and Maranta's former draconians to Teyr, an abandoned Dwarven city, now the capital of a free draconian nation.

HELLO ARCHENEMY!! PINTS!!!

HAD A FEW PINTS!!! OOOOOHHHHGGGAA!!!!

i'm all sexy

We are coming back now! IT WAS FUN!!! The hilarious result wa that it got dark we we were climbing. BUT IT WAS FUN!!!! There could have been at least one additional girl making out, but it was FUN anyway.

Hot girls should head up for a make out sesh on the LTW.

I'm in a car headed to index right now w/ alpinfox and ken4ord biznatches!! This is so hot, the interwebs in the car! FUN!!!!!

pretty much the same unstructured debauchery thing but at the Grasslands in Smith and no slideshow nonsense. Usually there is a few varieties of donated beer (Terminal Gravity! Triple Bock! ) and a big fire. It's usually in mid-to-late October, and coincident scheduling with Canadian Thanksgiving (Oct 9) weekend is nice. Sometimes it rains but Oregonisms don't whine about that possibility as much as Washingtonists when it comes to picking a date you're breaking my heart fern. i just wanted to make sure you can come down. we don't give a rip about the rain as much as making sure someone else show up to help me drink the beer...which will also be Terminal Gravity at the Ropeup.

actually, mine was the original. that one is updated and embelished upon by the illustrious Squid, who apparently is now too good for all of us.

how many windshirt have you sold? that chart probably needs to be updated.

its a specific type of character that appears to originate out of Spokane. Sort of like an "inland wigger" or an "arkansas boulder farmer" or something. These same type of revolutionary creatures gave us the mullet and other cultural treasures that have gone mainstream and become a part of our culture. we are lucky to be blessed with the presence of, it is a work of art really.

OK...now i'm leaning towards one of the later days of Sept. Keep those suggestions piling in! I can feel the ground swell of excitement building right now about this highly intoxicating event.

What kind of camera would you recommend for this climb Gary? looks like fun

or even better if you do a multiday trip but don't sleep or even stop. that is the best way to do the Tooth.
